[Prince of Tennis] FLOWER ~Saki Midareshi Hana~ (FLOWER ~Blooming Flower~) by GIGS

Lovely song!! This was the opening song of the OVAs I think, and the lyrics convey the message well. Like Don't Look Back, I was listening to this on the way to somewhere and was surprised I could understand the lyrics, so here we are. ♥

Kanji Romaji English

どんな色で着飾れば
自分らしくいられる?
ビルに欠けたあの空は
教えてはくれない

迷い込んだ迷路にも
必ず出口はある
立ち止まってしまったら
答えには着けない

求めてるものが何だって
結末を急いじゃ　現在(いま)が
つまらないぜ

咲き乱れて　華麗に舞え
プライドは脱ぎ捨てろ
誇り高く　魂(こころ)燃やせ
偽りの色じゃ
本物にはなれやしないぜ

今すぐに欲しいものは
本当はわかっている
身体が震え出すほどの
最高のスリル

たどり着く場所が何処だって
結末を急いじゃ　未来(あす)が
つまらないぜ

愛しいほど　胸を焦がせ
憂鬱さえ巻き込んで
狂おしくも　奇麗になれ
偽りの色じゃ
本物にはなれやしないぜ

形のない光がさす
場所で君を待っている

咲き乱れて　華麗に舞え
プライドは脱ぎ捨てろ
誇り高く　魂(こころ)燃やせ
終わらない旅へ
愛しいほど　胸を焦がせ
憂鬱さえ巻き込んで
狂おしくも　奇麗になれ
偽りの色じゃ
本物にはなれやしないぜ

Donna iro de kikazareba

Whatever color you wear,
Can you keep on being yourself?
The sky, even without obstructions
Cannot teach you that

Even when you're lost in a maze,
There's always a way out
If you stop trying,
You'll never find an answer

What object are you looking for?
With the end fast approaching,　The present is
Almost boring

Bloom　Dance in splendor
Strip yourself of pride
With pride　Let your heart burn up
If it's dyed a fake color,
It will never be the real thing

Right now, the thing I want is
The truth, now I understand
When I get to the point where my body trembles
It's the best kind of thrill

Where do you want to go?
With the end fast approaching,　The future is
Almost boring

My heart burns to the point where I love you
Drowning in melancholy,
Even the most maddening things become beautiful
If it's dyed a fake color,
It will never be the real thing

There, in the place with the formless light shines
I'm waiting for you

Bloom　Dance in splendor
Strip yourself of pride
With pride　Let your heart burn up
Continue your endless journey
My heart burns to the point where I love you
Drowning in melancholy,
Even the most maddening things become beautiful
If it's dyed a fake color,

It will never be the real thing

NOTES:
1. "Tsumaranai ze" pretty much translates to just "boring" but with a masculine inflection.
2. "Itsuwari no iro" means a fake color. I added "dyed" to make it more natural.
